Install issue

[SeongwooCheon]

Hi,

When I install the WEIS following the guide, the error is occured like this.

I typed this command
conda install -y cmake cython control dill git jsonschema make matplotlib-base numpy openmdao openpyxl pandas pip pyoptsparse pytest python-benedict pyyaml ruamel_yaml scipy setuptools simpy slycot smt sortedcontainers swig

the error is

Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.

To search for alternate channels that may provide the conda package you're
looking for, navigate to

and use the search bar at the top of the page.

How can I solve this?

The pyoptsparse package is not available on Windows (see its Anaconda.org page). Beyond pyoptsparse, the conda-supplied compilers also are not capable of compiling OpenFAST on Windows. You would have to use the OpenFAST release binaries for Windows and hack the WEIS setup a bit. For now, we recommend using the Windows Ubuntu Subsystem if you are on a Windows machine.

I want to transform WISDEM output into OpenFAST input. Is there Python or FORTRAN code like this?

[gbarter]

WEIS uses the same inputs as WISDEM and generates OpenFAST input files, using WISDEM as a preprocessor. WEIS is your best tool here, just not on pure Windows.
